Yes! Marriage is a life long commitment. In the words of a famous leader, "Marriage is not an agreement, marriage is a commitment." We don't just make a verbal agreement and shake hands (or kiss); we make a commitment. We pledge our lives, our souls, our very beings to love, cherish, (and obey - if you are a lady), " 'til death do us part." The thing many people are lacking today is true commitment. This is sadly the case in not just marriages, but the business world also. If the going gets tough, the tough find a good lawyer. It's easier to declare bankruptcy than to pay the debt. It's easier to divorce than to make the marriage work. There are many biblical reasons why marriage is a life-long commitment, and the harsh punishment upon those who did not keep their commitment. Besides all those, it boils down: to are you person of honour and integrity? Do you keep your word? Can you be trusted? When a person breaks their marriage vows, "To love and to cherish,......until death do us part" how can they retain any honour or integrity? He is not a man of his word and should not be trusted. Marriage is not always easy. My granny told me that, "You've never really loved a person until you seriously wanted to kill them a time or two." Sometimes you will feel lonely, rejected, maybe even neglected and mistreated; but duty comes before happiness. You have given your word and you must stand by it. The good news is that you don't have to stand alone. Reach out to God, first. He's always there. Then to a trusted pastor. They are not only trained counselors, but also have a direct line to God for extra wisdom and insight. When you stand and say your wedding vows, you are making a commitment to God, to yourself, and to your spouse. You cannot divorce, without breaking your commitment.
